The carcinogenic potential of AGGRASTAT has not been evaluated.
 
Tirofiban HCI was negative in the in vitro microbial mutagenesis and V-79 mammalian cell mutagenesis assays. In addition, there was no evidence of direct genotoxicity in the in vitro alkaline elution and in vitro chromosomal aberration assays. There was no induction of chromosomal aberrations in bone marrow cells of male mice after the administration of intravenous doses up to 5 mg tirofiban/kg (about 3 times the maximum recommended daily human dose when compared on a body surface area basis).
 
Fertility and reproductive performance were not affected in studies with male and female rats given intravenous doses of tirofiban up to 5 mg/kg/day (about 5 times the maximum recommended daily human dose when compared on a body surface area basis).<ref name="dailymed.nlm.nih.gov">{{Cite web  | last =  | first =  | title = AGGRASTAT (TIROFIBAN) INJECTION, SOLUTION [MEDICURE INTERNATIONAL INC] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=fe0ced75-ccbf-4d2e-bd0d-b57e60ab913f | publisher =  | date =  | accessdate = 6 February 2014 }}</ref>
